- 3. Introduction ● 3D printer a type of industrial robot ● used to synthesize a three-dimensional object ● objects can be of almost any shape or geometry ● Getting more and more popular ● Many companies provide the 3D printing service for customers (eg. Designing, Printing and Original Equipment Manufacturing)
- 5. Background Information A New printing method ●CLIP technology up to 100 times faster than existing 3-D printers new way of 3-D manufacturing introduced by a company called Carbon3D using a broad range of materials the shapes of the objects are more complex

- 8. Applications From the medical aspects printing blood vessels & heart issue printing skin patching a broken heart printing cartilage & bone Studying cancer with printed cells printing human embryonic stem cells From the fashion aspects printing clothing From the music aspects printing guitar For the superior goods printing cars printing jewellery For the food printing chocolate
- 9. The cost using 3D printer For home use ● Less than US$500 Commercial and Industrial use ● Around US$10000-20000 ● Some even cost US$50000
- 10. The materials for making products ● Metals (1)steel (2)titanium (3)Gold ● Plastic ● Glass ● Nylon ● Ceramic
- 11. The advantage of using 3D printing ● increase innovation ● improve communication ● speed time in market ● reduce developmental cost ● better design for the product ● tailor-made for customers
- 12. The disadvantages of using 3D printer ● the size of the product is usually small ● limited options for choosing materials ● may lead to unemployment ● more technical jobs are needed
